The Problem

Home Visits Create a Documentation Nightmare

You see 8-12 patients in their homes daily. Each visit generates 15-20 minutes of documentation. That is 2-4 hours of after-hours admin — every single day.

2.4 hours

Average time GPs spend on documentation after home visits, according to BMC Family Practice

47% burnout

Of physicians doing regular home visits report documentation as their primary stressor

No connectivity

68% of home visit locations have unreliable or no WiFi, making cloud-based scribes unusable

Technical Architecture

Built for Disconnected Environments

ChartScribe is not a "sometimes offline" tool. Offline is a first-class citizen in our architecture.

True Offline Recording

Records directly to device memory via the Web Audio API — no server round-trip, no connection required. Audio buffers are stored as 128kbps Opus-encoded chunks in IndexedDB.

Deferred Sync Engine

When connectivity returns, the Background Sync API automatically queues encrypted audio chunks for upload. Sync happens in the service worker thread, independent of browser state.

AES-256 Local Encryption

All recordings are encrypted at rest on the device using AES-256-GCM with keys derived from your account credentials. Data is unreadable without authentication.

Low Power Optimisation

Opus encoding at 16kHz mono uses <3% CPU on modern devices. A 30-minute consultation consumes approximately 28 MB of storage and 4% battery.

Any Device, Zero Install

Progressive Web App works on iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and any desktop browser. No app store download — patients never see you fumbling with technology.

Adaptive Noise Suppression

RNNoise-powered noise suppression filters household sounds (TV, washing machine, traffic) while preserving clinical speech at the phoneme level.

Workflow

From Front Door to EHR in 4 Steps

01

Open ChartScribe

Launch the PWA from your home screen. The interface loads in under 2 seconds, even with zero connectivity.

02

Record the Encounter

Tap the microphone. Record the full consultation — history, exam, plan. Audio is chunked every 10 seconds and encrypted to IndexedDB.

03

Close the Visit

End the recording. Patient details and a timestamped ID are attached locally. The note status shows "Queued for sync".

04

Return to Clinic

When your device reconnects to WiFi, sync triggers automatically. Your notes appear in the dashboard within 60-90 seconds of connection.

Output

Complete SOAP Notes, Automatically

Our GPT-4o-powered clinical NLP engine parses the transcribed encounter and generates a structured SOAP note with differential diagnoses, medication reconciliation, and follow-up recommendations — formatted to your institution's template.

  • Subjective: HPI, ROS, past medical history
  • Objective: Physical exam findings, vitals, lab results mentioned
  • Assessment: Primary diagnosis + differentials with ICD-10 codes
  • Plan: Medications, referrals, follow-up intervals, patient instructions
